Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, following the deployment of live facial recognition by South Wales Police in Cardiff in February and March, how many police officers were involved; how many civilian staff were involved; how many police person hours were used in preparation and delivery of the project; what was the total cost of the project, including contractors; and how many arrests resulted from the project, and for what offences.

Details of the pilot schemes carried out by South Wales Police will be set out in due course as part of a wider publication by the Home Office on its approach to the use of live facial recognition technology.
